Submission Guidelines

Main Text

• Main text word count: 11.000, including the footnotes and bibliography, and 2.500 words for small articles, including the footnotes and bibliography.

• The journal uses British spelling; however, authors may submit using either option, e.g. US spelling. 

• The title should be in Times New Roman 12 pt and centered.

• For the main text use Times New Roman (12 pt, 1.5 spacing, justified), and for footnotes Times New Roman (10 pt, single spacing, justified). 

• Avoid bold lettering; where necessary, use italics to emphasize or apostrophes (“...”) when quote a third source. The quotation marks "..." are also used for emphasis. Punctuation (e.g., commas, periods, question and exclamation marks) should come before close quotation marks, and not after, e.g. war.”

• When you quote a term or passage (from a literary work or third source) in English, make sure to refer to them in italics, providing, then, the initial language - translation (if required) in apostrophes and within a parenthesis. In case the passage is more than 3 lines, kindly distinguish it from the main text by using Tab, 10 pt, 1.15 spacing, justified). In case the passage is written in Polytonic Greek, please do not make any changes and keep it as it is. 

• The use of dots is preferred only when we do not quote all the passage of a literary work or third source and shall be within brackets, e.g. [...].

• Tables, images, diagrams, figures, etc. should be sent to the journal’s e-mail as separate supplementary files. Authors are advised to convert such material to .jpg image format. 

• Abbreviations: In general, terms should not be abbreviated unless necessary. In such a case initially use the word in full, followed by the abbreviation in parentheses. Thereafter use the abbreviation only. 

• Numbers shall be written as they are (e.g., time lines, age, measurements, etc.).

• References and Bibliography should be in accordance with the Chicago Manual of Style, Notes and Bibliography system. References appear in footnotes and not as in-text citations. The List of References should be found at the end of the paper. When the initial title is a Greek one, the author shall translate it into English or another western language.

• When quoting a website, please insert the URL as <https://….>, [Accessed, full date]. For example, <https://web.mit.edu/jmorzins/www/greek-alphabet.html>, [Accessed, 25th of November 2022].

• Provide DOI numbers for each item when available; in the References list, as well as when it first appears in the footnotes (not if repeated).

• Acknowledgements go first, then References. Do not footnote the title, or the paper’s first sentence, or the last sentence of the text in order to make acknowledgements. Convert such things into Acknowledgements that have their own separate paragraph after the end of your paper.
